Well, I don't. The main reason is that I would loose the Alt-keyboard
function which gives me acces to non-ASCII characters, like the Euro sign
and accented characters. Yes, I know Emacs has other ways to access these,
but I find them handy as they are the same as in other applications. If
you are English-speaking then these are less important. Maybe that's the
reason the British don't want the Euro :=)
